Editorial Reviews
Model for a Monument
Stylus
The vocals are lusciously emotional, walking the line between angst and restraint. A fine effort.
Rachel, Suburban Voice
This band really know how to put together a pop song: these will stick in your head.
Album Description
12 songs covering the years 92-96, and includes unreleased stuff, 7" and Compilation tracks. Haywood exercises the principle of control. Control, but not necessarily restraint. Sometimes control can mean restraint, but sometimes it can mean exactly the opposite. Restraint is always holding back, always playing the tip-of-the-iceberg game. But control...now control is something much grander. Control goes hand-in-hand with the craft of songwriting, as Haywood's music proves. Speaking of the craft of songwriting, you could try to peg Haywood as an acolyte of Archers of Loaf camp, or the Modest Mouse camp, or even the camps of Pavement, The Replacements, Promise Ring, or Rick Springfield -- but you'd be wrong every time. They're not from any camp at all, silly. They live in New York City. There's no camp there. What are you talking about? Weird.
